The incident drew protests and condemnation from several countries and raised questions about what any nation can legally do to enforce a blockade in international waters. Israeli officials said they had to act early because of the high number of boats involved.<\/p>\n<p>Israel took two of the activists \u2014 Spanish-Swedish citizen of Palestinian origin Saif Abukeshek and Brazilian citizen Thiago \u00c1vila \u2014 back to Israel where they were interrogated and detained for several days. The activists accused Israel of torture. Brazil and Spain condemned Israel for \u201ckidnapping\u201d their citizens. The two were deported from Israel on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>Organizers say the latest efforts involved a regrouped fleet following Israel\u2019s interception, joined by additional boats. Nearly 500 activists from 45 countries were taking part.<\/p>\n<div><ul><div><div><li><div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Boats belonging to the Global Sumud Flotilla prepare to depart for Gaza.\" class=\"wp-image-6169\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/db9c88aa0809fe8c5404509782a4c7af-1024x682.webp\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/db9c88aa0809fe8c5404509782a4c7af-1024x682.webp 1024w, https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/db9c88aa0809fe8c5404509782a4c7af-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/db9c88aa0809fe8c5404509782a4c7af-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/db9c88aa0809fe8c5404509782a4c7af-1536x1024.webp 1536w, https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/db9c88aa0809fe8c5404509782a4c7af.webp 1859w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<div>Boats belonging to the Global Sumud Flotilla, carrying activists and humanitarian aid, prepare to depart for Gaza from the port of Marmaris, Turkey, Thursday, May 14, 2026, in an attempt to break the Israeli naval blockade.

The Gaza Health Ministry said a total of 72,744 Palestinians have been killed since the war in Gaza began with the Hamas-led attack on southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, which killed about 1,200 people and saw 251 taken hostage. The ministry, part of the Hamas-led government, maintains detailed casualty records that are seen as generally reliable by U.N. agencies and independent experts. It does not give a breakdown of civilians and combatants.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=6165\">Brea Gallery is made for enjoying art<\/a><\/p>\n<p>A fragile 6-month-old ceasefire in Gaza has halted the most intense fighting between Israeli forces and Hamas-led fighters. Around 2 million Gaza residents are still living in ruins with shortages of food and medicine, and only limited aid entering through a single, Israeli-controlled border post.<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Israel and Egypt have imposed varying degrees of a blockade on Gaza since the Hamas seized power from rival Palestinian forces in 2007. Israel says the blockade is needed to prevent Hamas from importing arms, while critics say it amounts to collective punishment of Gaza\u2019s population. Hamas has been designated as a terrorist organization by the United States, Canada and the European Union.<\/p>\n<p>Last year, Israeli authorities blocked a similar attempt involving about 50 vessels and some 500 activists, including Swedish climate campaigner Greta Thunberg, Nelson Mandela\u2019s grandson Mandla Mandela and several European lawmakers.<\/p>\n<p>Israel arrested, detained and later deported the participants, who claimed Israeli authorities abused them. Israeli authorities denied the accusations.<\/p>\n<p>Previous efforts to breach the blockade have also failed. In 2010, Israeli commandos raided the Turkish boat Mavi Marmara, which had been participating in an aid flotilla attempting to reach Gaza. Nine Turkish citizens and one Turkish-American on board were killed. The last time an activist boat succeeded in reaching the strip was in 2008.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=6153\">Disneyland pin trading rules take aim at Disney Adults<\/a><\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p><em>Fraser reported from Ankara, Turkey.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dozens of boats carrying activists &#038; aid for Palestinians set sail from Turkey.
